Aren’t the devs of Lemmy Marxist leninist or something and .ml is one of their instances?

You “can” change them, but don’t some/most HOAs have it so that the more properties you own in a HOA, the more voting power/votes you have? Like you own 5 properties, thus have 5 votes?

It might just be that, since BYD is serving such a large domestic market/population, that allows them to have cheaper cars? Something something, economies of scale. I’m no expert though.

The particular brands are Elf Bar, Flum, and EscoBar

Edit addendum: heavy metals supposedly came from non heating elements

Reminds me of the Theresienstadt Ghetto: https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theresienstadt_Ghetto

I think most people know about her through her fox, Finnegan the Fox

I think what you’re talking about about are social “networking” sites, vs social “media”. You could also say that it’s a spectrum, some sites are more social media and others more networking.

There’s a meme out there that goes something along the line of “Nothing Ever Happens”. This line of thinking is poison, as it doesn’t take into account incrementalism. The fall into fascism isn’t a single large step, it’s many small steps until one day you’ve realized that you’re no longer in the same place that you were, and that now, you’re lost.

Btw, I wouldn’t call what’s happening in LA a “riot”. What’s happening in LA are protests.

I’m just hoping they didn’t bring their phones. Btw, if you go to a protest, don’t bring your smartphone.

I would recommend getting armed if this were to happen…just in case.

Yeah I was like, “In danger of? Bro it’s already happening”.

Sigh…at least Apple is getting screwed over though. They’ve been impeding right to repair for a long time, perhaps their karmic debt is finally catching up to them.

I mean, you could probably solve this shit by restricting the types of phones used to dumb phones. Phones only capable of texting and calls. Perhaps some basic access to school websites and Wikipedia too. Everything else default blacklisted.

From what I’ve heard, there are “Japanese Nationals” only spaces. But there are also many (if hazard to guess a majority of these locations) places that, due to their lack of English skills, put signs that mean to them “Japanese language only”, that is to say, they the proprietors of said location can only speak and write in Japanese, and therefore if you try to speak to them in your language, will not likely be able to service you properly. Some of these places will try their best to service you and let you in as well. Granted there are also places that will deny service if you don’t speak any Japanese, and that is ridiculous, but I’d like to think those places are few and far between as well.

I’m surprised armed plainclothes and or tactically dressed leftist groups, who’s goal is to specifically protect accused immigrants, haven’t popped up.

I think it’s another message. Tate says “The world is fucked up” and then proceeds to say “I have the secret, if you want to make it in this fucked up world you have to be tough, uncompromising, domineering, cheat, and act like me” and “you’re a sucker and a cuck if you don’t do what I say”. First message sets up the world, 2nd sets up a “”“”“solution”“”“” to success that only a “few” people know, and the final thing is him attempting to make anyone who believes otherwise look weak which gives any of his followers the ability to a) feel a sense of superiority and b) make fun of others for being “weak” or “cucks” or “betas” or whatever.

I mean I thought thorium reactors were figured out already? The economics of it and lobbying by big oil was the problem. It ain’t that surprising that China could make a thorium reactor though.

The hackers who took 4chan down come from an imageboard known as soyjak.party or “the sharty”. They are unironically, in terms of politics, more far right, and in terms of culture, far worse than 4chan from what I’ve heard and seen from the website.
